This tour requires physical condition to be able to carry out the route without any problem. Since it climbs almost +500 m of positive slope, with our nomenclature it is assigned level 3 of physical difficulty. It is a somewhat demanding route in the first half until you reach the esplanade, and then, to reach the summit, you still have to climb about 250 m of positive slope (almost 2 km of horizontal distance).
